Legacy continues its Miles campaign with Sketches of Spain (LegacyEdition) celebrating the 50th anniversary of the trumpeters extraordinary collaborationwith Gil Evans. When it was released in 1960, it was so different that manycritics simply didnt know what to make of it. When confronted with the question isit jazz? Miles answered, Its music, and I like it. The finished results were ultimatelyhailed as a masterpiece, creating a hypnotic possessed effect, and brought toa fitting climax the period of intense creativity that had begun in 1954.
